All 5 products are winners and easy to incorporate into my routine. Overall I’ve really enjoyed the 5-Step Normal Skincare Set. These contain salicylic acid and tea tree oil and work to reduce redness and penetrates the skin to dissolve the debris that is clogging your pores. The Missha Speedy Solution Anti Trouble Patches were recommended to me by a few readers so I bought a pack to try. I find these work best on whiteheads to absorb excess oil and pull the debris to the surface. I’ve really loved the CosRX Acne Pimple Master Patch for a hydrocolloid treatment so I restocked! They come with different sized patches which is convenient since I usually have different size pimples whether it’s a whitehead or blackhead. I tested a few other things from Soko Glam for acne. There is also a Sheet Mask Pack available from the same line which I want to try next! On super tender skin days it helped calm the skin. It sinks into the skin nicely and hydrates, soothes and reduces redness. It 100% does! I was so impressed by this – especially for winter! It’s a great moisturizing cream that is perfect for sensitive or normal-dry skin. The SkinRX MadeCera Cream has such a high number of rave reviews and I was interested in seeing if it lived up to the hype. I also find it makes a nice setting spray for makeup. It dispenses a super fine mist (one of the finest I’ve seen!) to evenly spritz the skin. With the cold dry weather here for the fall/winter adding the Acwell Licorice pH Balancing Essence Mist has been a lifesaver.

I often neglect essence but anytime I add it, I find my skin is significantly more balanced. I will definitely repurchase this one after it’s used up! It contains their fermented yeast extract to help cellular turnover. The Missha Time Revolution Clear Toner was mild enough to use 2x per day after cleansing and left the skin brighter, more even and softer.

Trying new formulas always makes me nervous with my sensitive skin. I use toner religiously and have a few staples I rely on. The texture has no foaming/bubbling action which is really nice! It has a hydrating finish and leaves the skin feeling clean and soft. I had a few skin flare ups over the past month and this helped calm down the skin. The Acwell Bubble Free pH Balancing Cleanser is a gentle gel cleanser that is lightweight, effective and calming. It melts like butter into the skin! I found it super gentle but effective and it left my skin super soft. I love solid makeup removers and the Botanic Farm Grain Ferment Cleansing Sherbert is one that contains rice, rice bran and soy bean to gently break down makeup for cleansing. _ 5-Step Korean Skincare | Step 1: Oil Cleanse My thoughts on the 5-Step Normal Skincare Routine below!
